Anyone care to send their (safe for work) ideally gamedev/racing/tech related stickers for my cabinet??

#StickerBomb

Tomorrow I will share what January 2026 has been like as an indie developer when I stream the business review.

How much I earned, how much I spent and what lessons I learned to be a better #GameDev / #IndieDev will be discussed.

Where: www.twitch.tv/timbeaudet
When: February 1st: 6am ET / 1100 UTC

I admire the blog posts consistency, something I've never been able to manage!

Lots of things...

1. I prefer the chase cam, but there was no HUD on the chase cam, I think I'd prefer chase & HUD.
2. Though I'd also likely prefer HUD to be more static on the screen, rather than "attached" to vehicle.
3. I focus on racing games and stream, if you'd like more feedback drop in.

Absolutely killer week of gamedev with a huge reveal on todays stream. It was awesome and I hope yours was as well!

Share what you've worked on!

Excluding tonight, I can't remember the last time I bought something on pure impulse...

I may have thrown $30 in a bin, but my inner child is overly excited!

Have to say I don't even feel bad when my face shows annoyance in this situation.

The example that comes to my mind is the Coca Cola winter commercials of old, they were almost MORE about the winter spirit and happy holidays, and sure it's product placement as a polar bear gets a drink...

I totally agree. Ads is just like "your need, our product", and sometimes just "our product".

Commercial is like ... a story, or a mini-world, or ... something more. I don't yet know what that more is, because idk if 'no jingle/joke' fits either.

You can still chase stronger workflows and better understand and better works without gen AI #indiegamedev #solodev #aislop #maekgaem

@ottermakegames.bsky.social gave me an interesting thought...

"There is a difference between a commercial and an ad, I don't know what it is yet but..."

This feels mind bending. It feels completely true, yet I also can't describe it further.

Happy New Year!

What monster DRINKS the snowman!???

Oh, another demo to check out! Looks awesome!

#gamedev #indiedev #steamdemo #freetoplay #newgame

Rushcremental on Steam An incremental game about scavenging scrap and drag racing for all the territories in the wasteland.

How Not to Release a Demo:

Prepare the build, prepare the promo content, Open Steam, press "Release" ... Have your power go out.

I'm trying to tell the world that store.steampowered.com/app/2695500/... is coming to Steam and now has a Demo!

I'm on a phone with LTE because ... my power went out.

There are no developers here???

#IndieGameDevs in the sky, please quote post a screenshot of your game, and describe a challenge you've faced or completed recently!

What is everyone up to?

This is the most niche project I could do - correcting the graphics of the trucks from the original Monster Truck Madness. Trying to keep the "made in Deluxe Paint" style, but more correct to the real trucks. #retrogaming #simracing

Big announcement on Friday! If you already know SHHHH! 🤫

It's going to be a fun stream!

My 100 day game was in here, as were HUNDREDS of other amazing indie games. What a year!

#gamedev #15seconds

Lone Wulf Studio 2025 Indie Showcase Submission Submit 15 seconds of game footage from games you worked on in 2025!

Attention Indie Devs!

I just need 15 seconds ... of your game footage! A lot of people jumped on the 15s video trend, so I thought it would be cool to make a compilation to help indies get some visibility.

The anti-spam key is "kook".

It is a touch early still but I wanted to share this while I remembered, @gbgames.com has some fantastic advice for the upcoming holiday season:

Comment: Is expect the streamBuffer read only, and thus the case should be okay to improve performance (instead of allocating and copying the memory into the stream buffer just use it in place. -TIM 20150517

streamBuffer is an in memory buffer of audio data, what did past-me mean with this comment??

What is blinkenlight?

Apparently #PitchYaGame is a thing and it is today!

Collect scrap resources in Rushcremental - a post apocalyptic incremental/racing game.

I’m building this in 100 days, live on twitch.tv/timbeaudet.

What got you into GameDev?

And where are you in your venture?

Did you have a life altering moment of clarity?

#indiedev #gamedev #programming

22 days into the game and I am nearly feature complete. Still have Steam achievements to do, and to get all the loops fully connected.

And of course struggle with racing... the area of my "expertise"
